Spiff,

I know full well that people go off the deep end for legal reasons.

Here let put it this way...

The passenger's bag alarms and must be searched. In the process of the search they find heroin and just let him go. He got through the WTMD with the needles. (which shouldn't surprise because shoes have much more metal and go through some airports)

He enters the bathroom and shots up. He's brought the stuff to calm himself for the flight but instead it just makes it worse. While on the plane he finally can't take it and someone is killed.

Now he isn't killed but restrained and when they finally land and he is turned over to officers. He admits what he did but that TSA caught the stuff but let it go and this gets to the victims family.

The families position, is yes this could happen anyday but the fact is the TSA had a chance to do something and didn't!


Do you think that TSA could be responsible at this point?

This isn't a question about why we should search for drugs and such, it just came to me reading this thread. Thought I would lay it out there.
